Test automation is a skill that is constantly in demand and individuals who possess the appropriate skill set are highly sought after. With virtually all web apps and services communicating over APIs today, API test automation as a skill has become even more important. 

Learn how to automate API tests using the Karate test framework - one of the most widely used test automation frameworks in the world. No previous experience in API test automation or any programming language is required to take this course. However, a basic knowledge of APIs and a general understanding of the importance of automation are expected.
